Students learn how to direct a play using character development along with the art of stage make-up and other skills that are needed to produce a successful play. Students also learn the process of teamwork. Personal growth comes from learning how to coordinate all the various elements together.
Cinderella never had it this bad. In A Cinderella Story—a twisted and hilarious update of the classic fairy tale—a deaf girl named Cinderella, lives at the beck and call of her self-obsessed step-mother and her sinfully wicked step-sisters who treat her more like a servant than a member of the family. With her sight set an leaving home, Cinderella finds her less-than-sparkling life wonderfully complicated when she meets her prince charming.
The MSSD production is directed by Maria Solovey and Assistant, Suzette Evringham.
